The Perfect Pancake for Shrove Tuesday or should that be Sardines? Are you still practising to make the perfect Pancake? I love pancakes, so it doesn’t take much to get me battering up and making pancakes and they are a useful thing to get to grips with if you are cooking for one or two […]

5-2 Diet Plan Low Calorie Meals – Nduja Topped Cod: Another 5-2 diet week, another 5-2 diet plan. Thankfully this week involves a little less eating out than last week and I’m starting the week with a 5-2 diet fast day, although apart from the fact that I’m not drinking any wine this evening it […]

Marinades for Christmas with Olives from Spain: A fabulous hamper of goodies arrived from the lovely people at Olives from Spain the other day. Now, you may remember, I’ve already tried a few of their recipes for marinaded olives and to be honest I would happily have carried on working my way through the selection […]

5-2 Diet Haddock – Tangy Fish in a Crisp Crumb: This is another recipe using some of the wonderful fish that John at DelishFish has sent to me. It’s very easy and quick – the sort of thing you can rustle up in the time it takes to microwave a ready meal. And, trust me, […]

Marinated Olives – Sometimes Simple Things are the Best: You may remember I wrote about an Olives from Spain event a couple of weeks ago.

Another Fish Dish Another Day: My life is not always like this. I really am very happy to be living off the fish I was sent from Delish Fish – not only is it all great quality, but I have a whole range of types of fish to try. Lemon Sole is a flat fish […]

Lemon Chicken – Trying to eat healthy food: This recipe for healthy lemon chicken is very quick and simple. I made mine using the wings and legs from the Organic Chicken in my Abel and Cole box this week. If you don’t plan on feeding a whole family, it’s quite a good idea to take […]

It’s a long time since I tried making scones. I can remember making batches of the things when I was in my teens because my mum, as doctor’s wife in a small town, was ‘volunteered’ to cater for the local tennis tournament each year (apparently the doctor’s wife ALWAYS did the catering!). It sounds trivial […]
